Ross

I believe the answer is:

awl

'leatherworker's tool' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for awl that I've seen before include "Instrument for boring holes" , "Boring tool sounds comprehensive" , "Shoemaker's tool" , "Law about a drilling tool" , "Pointed tool for making small holes" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The New York Times and the Universal.
